BEYOND BENATAR

Share

“WILD CHILD.” E.G. Daily. A&M.; It’s easy to become infatuated with this singer/actress’ debut album. Daily’s a sinewy, smoky vocalist who alternately shrieks and pouts as she tosses out some fine, beyond-Benatar, post-adolescent album rock. Daily and Rick Ramirez co-produce and co-write four songs (heavy on the synths and drum machines), and big-name producers Harold Faltermeyer, John (Jellybean) Benitez and Keith Forsey give the rest a high-gloss shine. The overdone disco tunes remind you that all’s not well, but the commercial fix this record supplies is good while it lasts.
